Experience a new level of driving exhilaration in your Superformance Cobra with our Electric Power-Assisted Steering (EPAS) Conversion Kit! Designed specifically for floor shift models, this kit brings modern steering comfort and razor-sharp precision to your high-performance replica, making every curve and straightaway feel more connected and effortless.
Why Upgrade to Electric Power Steering?
Swapping to electric power steering offers significant advantages over traditional hydraulic systems, making it the ultimate upgrade for your Cobra:
-
No Pump, No Fluid, No Leaks: Say goodbye to messy hydraulic fluid, leaky hoses, and bulky pumps. EPAS simplifies your engine bay, eliminates common failure points, and keeps your garage clean.
-
Reduced Engine Drag: Unlike hydraulic systems that constantly draw power from your engine, our electric system only activates when assistance is needed. This means you regain horsepower that would otherwise be lost to a hydraulic pump, potentially improving your Cobra's performance.
-
Dynamic Assist When You Need It: The system intelligently activates only when you're turning, providing substantial power assistance at low speeds (perfect for navigating tight pits or parking) and a firmer, more connected feel at higher speeds. This intelligent design gives you the best of both worlds – effortless control when you need it most, and enhanced road feedback for confident, spirited driving.
-
Fully Adjustable Feel: An integrated adjustable potentiometer empowers you to fine-tune the level of steering assist to perfectly match your driving style, whether you're carving canyons or dominating the track.
-
Reliable & Maintenance-Free: Electric systems are built for durability and require virtually no maintenance. They are also less prone to wear compared to their hydraulic counterparts, meaning more time enjoying the thrill of your Cobra and less time on upkeep.
What's Included in the Kit:
This comprehensive conversion kit provides the essential components for your upgrade:
- A powerful 60 amp electric motor unit that delivers robust steering assistance.
- All the necessary mounting hardware for a secure and straightforward installation.
- A prewired control module to simplify the setup process.
- The steering column IS included in this kit, streamlining your installation.
How It Works: Intelligent & Customizable Power
Our EPAS system uses a sophisticated computer to measure the amount of effort you apply to the steering wheel. An integrated electric motor then amplifies this effort, providing immediate and accurate power assist. The included adjustable potentiometer puts you in complete control, allowing you to customize the amount of assistance. For example, you can enjoy maximum power assist for easy maneuvering at low speeds and less assistance for a firmer, more controlled feel at high speeds. The system is also highly efficient, activating only when you're turning.
